Question

My ios certificate expired.
So I invoked the old certicate and create a new certificate and modify the provisioning of each app(with the same Apple ID).

I downloaded the certificate (distribution_identity.cer) and the app .mobileprovision file and add to ‘keychian’ and ‘Xcode’.

In ‘Edit Active Target’, I could see ‘Code Siging Identity’ displaying new provisioning profile, but when I builded the project, it reported errors:

CodeSign "build/Ad Hoc-iphoneos/myApp.app"
cd "/Users/myName/iphone source code/myApp All/myApp 1.2"
setenv PATH "/Developer/Platforms/iPhoneOS.platform/Developer/usr/bin:/Developer/usr/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin"
setenv _CODESIGN_ALLOCATE_ /Developer/Platforms/iPhoneOS.platform/Developer/usr/bin/codesign_allocate
/usr/bin/codesign -f -s "iPhone Distribution: MYNAME" "--resource-rules=/Users/myName/iphone source code/myApp All/myApp 1.2/build/Ad Hoc-iphoneos/myApp.app/ResourceRules.plist" --entitlements "/Users/myName/iphone source code/myApp All/myApp 1.2/build/myApp.build/Ad Hoc-iphoneos/myApp.build/myApp.xcent" "/Users/myName/iphone source code/myApp All/myApp 1.2/build/Ad Hoc-iphoneos/myApp.app"


iPhone Distribution: MYNAME: ambiguous (matches "iPhone Distribution: MYNAME" in /Users/myname/Library/Keychains/login.keychain and "iPhone Distribution: MYNAME" in /Library/Keychains/System.keychain)
Command /usr/bin/codesign failed with exit code 1

Welcome any comment

Thanks

The error message seems to tell you what you need to know:

iPhone Distribution: MYNAME: ambiguous
(matches “iPhone Distribution: MYNAME”
in
/Users/myname/Library/Keychains/login.keychain
and “iPhone Distribution: MYNAME” in
/Library/Keychains/System.keychain)

You’ve got two certificates that match the name “iPhone Distribution: MYNAME”, and CodeSign doesn’t know which one to use.
